The White Queen, by Philippa GregoryRead about another book on the list.
Between maternity shopping and curry cravings, we’d wager Middleton has had few hours to invest in the BBC’s new series The White Queen (airing stateside on Starz in August), a period drama centering around the queen consort to King Edward IV of England, Elizabeth Woodville. Given Woodville’s non-royal roots, Middleton may just find herself relating to the heroine at the heart of Gregory’s historical novel (minus the whole War of the Roses part, of course).
The White Queen is one of Amanda Donohoe's six best books.
